The ability to find services or resources that satisfy some criteria is an important aspect of distributed systems. This paper presents an event-based architecture to support more...
This paper describes a framework of real-time simulation for modeling heavy construction operations. Compared with the traditional offline simulation that uses stationary inputs, ...
Over the years, Logic Programming has proved to be a good and natural tool for expressing, querying and manipulating explicit knowledge in many areas of computer science. However, ...
In component-based systems, fault-tolerance concerns are typically handled by manually programmed fault containers. The purpose of fault containers is to prevent error propagation...
Many adaptative context-aware middleware exist and most of them rely on so-called vertical architectures that offer a functional decomposition for contextawareness. This architectu...
